The '94 850Ci was 296 hp and 332 ft pounds of torque

The 840 was 282 hp and 295 ft pounds

The big boy 850CSi was 377 hp and 405 ft pounds

These are all stock numbers

Chipped the 850 goes to 330 to 340 hp and the 840 goes to 320hp

There are a whole lot of people that wish that they could have one.

I was quoted about $7000+ to convert mine once, but then it is about the same price to Supercharge it

Just don't know what I would do with 407 HP though

For about $15,000 I could have about 460 HP

By the time you add transportation and Federalization to the $5000 price tag you are at least to $15,000 US

If you are talking 850i that is around the right price for an Average '91-'92

A late model Sport version-- '96 or '97 might be worth considering but those are in the Mid $20k range now so unless it is perfect and un-altered that is a big question mark.

One of the other problems with importing is that you may end up waiting for a Year or so to actually get the car. Takes 8 to 12 weeks to actually do everything on the car but then you have to wait for the paperwork to be approved
